Forgot my own advice, drowned my phone

sounds about right, so do apple sell re-sealing kits I wonder?

The received wisdom is that any repair, done by Apple or anyone else, negates the waterproofing.

To be honest Apple products tend to be long-lived these days. The MBP I'm typing this on is 12 years old, my iPhone is 5 years old. There was a time when batteries would last 12-18 months but we seem to be past that now.

(Probably going to buy a new laptop this year...)

Interestingly, I had my Samsung repaired. As part of the repair, they had to do a water tightness test. It involved going onto a diagnostics menu then spraying an air duster into the sim slot and measuring something (I assume the pressure drop within the phone).
